It's a weekly battle where we don't always get our way, but we try our best to do that.” Roman Reigns added

He’s funny. He goes, ‘What the heck am I supposed to do?’ ‘It’s simple, man. You feed them, you change them, you love them. That’s it.’ He texts back, ‘You make it sound so simple.’ We’re all still good, dude,” Roman Reigns said.
